50 years of service (x2)

Dublin Masonic Lodge honored Jimmy Harrell (left) and Tommy Hooks (second from right) with 50-year pins Saturday, marking the half a century that each have been involved with the historic organization. Fellow Dublin mason Stanley Anderson helped pin Harrell’s award on while Hooks’ wife, Mary, was on hand to help with the presentation. The Lodge spoke favorably of the pair’s contributions to the community and served a lasagna lunch complete with a special cake. Paul Gaudette | Citizen staff photo
